| WWE Network? Any idea Fios will get this channel whenever it launches? |

kudos:2 | That would take FIOS TV gaining capacity to actually carry a new channel.
Lord knows when that will happen.
If you want NEW channels, look to another provider.

when is it launching?...April was what I heard earlier but apparently that has been delayed |

Fall 2012, and it could start as SD. The problem is that WWE wants to charge a fortune for it. The advertising would be minimal, because while there are plenty of wrestling fans, that channel would be so niche the ratings would be microscopic. |

Fios is out of space, what you see is all we get. |

| FIOS is not out of space. You guys really think Verizon has no immediate plan to add channels if they need/want to? |

The problem here is McMahon wants a premium for the channel, and he's never going to get it. In fact, I've read press on the channel from WWE where they were promoting a sports-only ala carte package with many of the sports networks and their channel. Good luck on that one Vince! |

WWE should pay you all for watching it...Only better actors are in Hollywood...  |

| Of course its acting. its also compelling television at times, and occasionally athletically spectacular. |

I would much prefer a channel based on the old Mid Atlantic Championship Wrestling than the current WWE. I still remember watching it the night Greg Valentine broke Wahoo McDaniel's leg...  |

| WWE owns the tape libaries of most of the old promotions, so would likely get your wish
